Summary

During the evaluation of a patient with a movement disorder, advanced neuroimaging is often obtained to narrow the diagnostic possibilities and also to assess the status of what is frequently a neurodegenerative process. In the other chapters of this monograph, specific metabolic causes of movement disorders are discussed in detail. In this chapter, we provide a pragmatic approach for integrating imaging data into the work-up of a patient with a movement disorder of uncertain etiology, heavily emphasizing brain MRI which is the cornerstone of imaging work-up for this indication. Our focus is on pediatric-onset disorders manifesting as dystonia, chorea, athetosis, tremor, parkinsonism, and myoclonus.
